Marvin
Gaye: What's Going On and the Last Days of the Motown Sound
by Ben Edmunds, Ben Edmonds
Book Description: Arguably the greatest soul album ever made, What's
Going On established Motown star Marvin Gaye as a unique and maverick musical
talent. His determination and vision resulted in inspirational and pioneering
works that, in the era of Vietnam and the civil rights protests, challenged
America to take a long hard look at itself. Ben Edmonds examines in detail
the making of this legendary work -- initially rejected by Motown's quality-control
department -- interviewing many of the artists and record company employees
closest to the singer, to arrive at a deeper understanding of what the
album means. It is, without question, one of the greatest stories ever
told.
